Geo-Targeted Success

The Client

Hungry Top is a food auction startup that launched in Kolkata — a first-of-its-kind concept where users bid for food items at reduced prices. For the app to succeed, they needed rapid, high-volume installs from a very specific geographic area: North Kolkata pin codes. The challenge was to drive real, quality installs at a minimal cost.

The Challenge

Most app install campaigns suffer from broad targeting, inflated costs, and poor conversion quality. Hungry Top needed installs from a hyper-specific geography — not just Kolkata, but specific pin codes in North Kolkata where their initial food partners were operational.

Our Approach

We built a hyper-local performance marketing strategy using pin code-level geo-targeting on Meta (Facebook & Instagram). Every rupee of the budget was directed toward users within the exact delivery zones.

Pin code-level geo-targeting
Meta App Campaign optimization
Audience interest mapping for food lovers
Creative A/B testing for best CPI
Daily install monitoring & budget control
Rapid scale-up on winning ad sets

The Results

We successfully delivered targeted app downloads within specific North Kolkata pin codes at an extremely efficient budget of just ₹2 per install, making the food auction startup's launch a massive success. The campaign ran consistently at 200–250 installs per day — well within cost targets.

Why This Matters

In a market where average CPI for food apps ranges from ₹15–50, achieving ₹2 CPI with quality, geo-targeted installs represents a 7–25x improvement in efficiency. This gave Hungry Top a powerful user base exactly where they needed it most.
